2006 Lexus Gs on 2040-cars
Lomax, Illinois, United States
This is probably one of the better Lexus GS300 AWD vehicles available for sale today.
When I decided on a Lexus GS300 AWD in March of 2014, I looked at every one that came on the market within a 150
mile radius. This was by far the best one I found. I think I looked at and drove more than thirty. There were many
that advertised an “accident free” history, but when I got there the car had obviously been hit. There even was
one that the seller insisted had never been in an accident, but the back door could not be opened more then 18”
wide, and made much noise when being opened. I must confess that I am a very discerning buyer when it comes to
cars. This car had the full history from when the car was first purchased from the dealer, was the cleanest inside,
and the body showed NO evidence of ever having been hit. I looked for three months before finding this car.
The car has 111.650 miles on it, but many of the engine parts are NEW. Since I purchased the car in June of 2014
the following parts on the engine have been replaced:
New alternator, December 2014
New gasket kit, December 2014
New piston ring set, December 2014
New gasket, December 2014
New water pump, December 2014
I took it into the Lexus dealer because I felt it was consuming too much oil. Lexus tested it and found that the
oil control rings were clogged. Lexus replaced the oil control rings, piston rings, valve seals and cleaned those
areas. Many of the engine parts are now new, so the engine is probably in better shape than others for sale with
fewer miles. While they had the engine apart I opted to have the water pump and alternator replaced also.
I really like this car and do not really want to sell it, but I have no choice. I had an injury prior to buying the
car, and did not realize at that time what medical issues and expenses would come before the end of the year. I am
only selling it because I need cash. I have purchased an older ES300, and am, unfortunately, selling this car.
Here is what the dealer said about the car when it came in on trade.

2015 Lexus RC F
Fri, 05 Sep 2014I didn't get a chance to drive the Lexus IS F until 2009, two years after the car had gone on sale, but I still vividly remember the day it happened. Having piloted almost every other vehicle in the Lexus lineup at that point, I was stoked to finally get some wheel time in the V8-powered, flared-fender muscle sedan, but fully expected the car to offer a quick, sanitized and ultimately un-driverly experience. Lexus built well-screwed-together, comfortable, quiet, reliable luxury cars for the timid, right?
As it turned out, I was 100-percent incorrect. When the premium brand's lauded "skunkworks team" crammed that massive V8 into the innocent IS, and then tuned the thing for competent hot laps at Fuji Speedway (F = Fuji, if you haven't heard), they seemingly forgot every brand value that Lexus had curated over the previous 20 years. It was raw and loud, had fast-twitch reflexes and a penchant for power slides, and it went unyieldingly across the road surface like a racecar cut loose from the paddock.
As far as Ur- models and origin stories go, the IS F and Lexus F has a pretty compelling, if new, set. A backdrop against which the sequel, this 2015 RC F, must inevitably be viewed. Sure, the otherworldly LFA may have intervened as the second F model, but the RC carries forward an evolution of the 5.0-liter V8 thumper, some shared body and chassis constructions, similar in-your-face design and a ticket price that's squarely in the mix for premium buyers with a hankering to smoke tires.
Lexus LF-NX Concept takes aim at the small crossover herd [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Lexus is drawing crowds with its sharply styled LF-NX Concept, a car that previews a competitor for the likes of the BMW X1, Mercedes-Benz GLK (also debuting at Frankfurt) and Audi Q3. We previewed the LF-NX last week, but we've since gotten a bit of in-person time with the compact crossover on the Frankfurt show floor.
There's a lot of show-car tinsel here, but the makings of a production model are fairly visible. That trademark Lexus face, with the separate headlight and running light arrays and an even more extreme version of the "spindle" grille, is present and accounted for. The styling is sliced and carved, like the Lexus IS, although it's difficult to tell if the production model will be quite so extreme in its looks. We'll bet yes.
Take a look above for the full set of live images from Frankfurt, then scroll down for video and some of the stock images from the original, online unveiling. Finally, click over for our complete coverage of the LF-NX from its debut, last week.
Lexus IS 250 to get new turbo four?
Tue, 22 Apr 2014"All show, no go." That's how I described the 2014 Lexus IS 250 F Sport that you see above, when I reviewed it back in November. Don't get me wrong, there's a lot to like about the new IS, but the 204-horsepower, 2.5-liter V6 in the IS 250 is not on that list. In my review, I suggested that Lexus ought to get on the bandwagon of offering a small-displacement, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine in its base IS (like its rivals), and now the folks at Motor Trend are furthering that discussion.
Lexus pulled the wraps off its new NX 200t crossover at the Beijing show recently, and it'll be the first vehicle in the company's lineup to use a brand-new - you guessed it - 2.0-liter turbo-four. With 238 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque on tap, that represents a healthy increase over the 204 hp and anemic 185 lb-ft currently being offered with the 2.5-liter V6, and we imagine the fuel economy gains will be rather significant, too. For comparison, the Lexus' four-pot power numbers are very close to the 240 hp and 255 lb-ft offered in the same-sized engine that BMW uses in the 328i.
Motor Trend also posits that Lexus may consider changing the base IS' name from 250 to 200, or perhaps 200t, to properly reflect the new engine's displacement. Of course, that's assuming Lexus doesn't pull a BMW or Mercedes-Benz, and no longer has its alphanumeric names properly reflect the size of the powerplant found underhood.
